Keserich Heads Home
Matthew Keserich opened to 26,000 under the gun, before seeing a shove from cutoff James Jeffrey, to the tune of 126000. Jon Turner then announced, "Oh Baby," and got his 100,000 stack in as well. Keserich paused before deciding to go bounty hunting, and made the call.
Jon Turner: 10♥10♦
James Jeffrey: A♥Q♦
Matthew Keserich: A♠10♣
The board ran out J♣6♠Q♥2♠Q♠ as Jeffrey tripled, Turner went home, and Keserich was left with just 41,000.
The very next hand, Keserich folded his big blind, and the hand after he had only 1,000 behind after posting his small blind. Weizheng Zhong raised to 32,000, Keserich flicked in his remaining 1,000, and Drake Kemper called. After pots were sorted out, the players went to a flop of J♠7♠6♠
Kemper bet just 20,000 on the flop, and Zhong called. After being checked to on the 2♥ turn, Zhong bet 55,000, and Kemper quickly check-shoved to put Zhong at risk, as he put in the call.
Matthew Keserich: 10♣2♦
Weizheng Zhong: K♣K♠
Drake Kemper: Q♠7♦
Zhong managed to fade everything on the 7♦ river, as he picked up a bounty and stayed alive.
